It is fun.

A couple of questions for you wrt setup.hint...

category: the best I can think of is Utils... is this OK?
requires: cygwin (obviously) and bash.  It requires bash 2.05a - how do I
specify versions in the requires section?

Here's what I've got so far:

sdesc: "A script of Bash completion rules."
ldesc: "A relatively new feature in bash is programmable completion, 
which has been available since the beta version of 2.04.  This extends the 
built in filename completion to programs such as ssh and cvs.
http://www.caliban.org/bash/index.shtml#completion."
test: 1.0-1
category: Utils
requires: cygwin bash

I'll also put together a README file...
